As companies cut back on travel, many are hosting virtual events so that employees and business owners can upgrade their skills from the comforts of home or office.

They end up making many mistakes that cost them time, money and their reputation.

- Why planning a multi-speaker virtual event is much more than booking a conference bridge line

Online business owners still aren’t “getting” SEO copywriting. Many consultants still aren’t doing it well. The left hand isn’t talking to the right. What’s going on? Why is this stuff so hard to learn and even harder to execute with success?

When done without understanding of the fundamentals - even when outsourced - SEO copywriting can do more harm than good. In this teleclass, our guest expert Karri Flatla will deconstruct the mythology of SEO copywriting. She will also provide simple, anyone-can-do-it tactics for improving your own web message, your client’s web message and working with the SEO and copywriting professionals who appear to hold all the cards.

Well known across the web for her take-no-prisoners writing style, Karri’s articles and tips have been featured at Search Engine Guide, the VAnetworking Blog, Fuel Net, Problogger’s TwiTip, and Smart Company Magazine.
